The LS460L is their all-time most beautiful model. The Lexus peak for design aesthetic. You brought this one back to life for sure. What a great job.

[@kawasakiwhiptwo5821]

Agreed.

[@Atthewgoop]

Future classic

[@jakub5443]

Looks great but new LS models have superb design too. Timeless cars.

[@donsterr]

Ah, you gotta be tripping. The LS430 UCF31 is HANDS DOWN THE BEST CAR EVER MADE

[@funktron4]

Ummmm….I don’t think I said anything at all about which car I think is the all-time best. I was commenting on styling. And the 430 is a Japanese attempt to do a faux Mercedes, LMFAO. The 460 was true Japanese Luxury design, original and fresh. Drive your copy and be happy. The 430 is a mechanically strong car. Not the “best car ever” but very good. And there’s nothing wrong with a fake Rolex if it keeps time. Enjoy.

[@Atl_celebrity]

They done took detailing to another level 😂😂😂 basically rebuilt a car from the factory all over again

[@justalaugher]

the "taking brake pads out, cleaning then putting it back" part is killing me... I'd get new pads as soon as the old ones are out no matter how good the old ones are.

[@user-gq2yv2bs8g]

This car was DECADES AHEAD of its times....When I first saw them change a couple of the suspension parts, I said, that's not gonna make it worth $10k, but half way into the video, I QUICKLY CHANGED MY MIND, it's worth $15k-$20k now....I would by this in a heartbeat NOW....

[@johnsully777]

How much to do my car this way? And where are you located?

[@GHN1013]

Yup. How much money does it cost to buy all these new parts and cost of labor to basically rebuilt your car?

Man, these guys are good! They polished it so hard, it turned from a LS600H to a LS460L! I think they polished 2 spokes off each wheel though, maybe use a lighter compound next time.

[@weo6857]

[@actontreadway1168]

Just stunningly beautiful. I wish they had companies in America that specialize in restoration at this kind of detail. Bravo!!!

[@a9udn9u-vanced]

I'm sure there are plenty if the price is right.

[@bedtimestories4927]

How is this so strange? First its two different cars. 460L is a normal 4.6 v8 long body version. But under the hood is a hybrid synergy drive and two fat orange high voltage wires. That came only on LS 600h. Plus the wheels in the end are also different from the ones they put on. A easy tell is also the blue hue on the headlights. Something strange going on here😮

This is wonderful to watch ..... unfortunately, we (the viewers) have no idea where this kind of service is available in the US or how much it would cost the retail customer.

[@Tlhakxza]

Former owner of an LS460, when i saw the changes done on the Suspension,it reminded me of the problem(common apparently) on the Arm and Tierod Ends, them shits were so expensive to replace it broke me...i still miss my LS til today and i would buy it again if I were to have the money to. By far THE BEST car i've ever driven...if I could fly to JAPAN and buy a second hand LS 600h and have it resored by these gents here...i LOVE and ADORE that as well. Great work by you guys🙌🏿👌🏿

[@frederickfitzwilliam5909]

I give you guys a strong B. Now redo the suspension parts as you torqued everything without the weight of the vehicle on the suspension.

[@egorboroda1099]

Вы правы!!!

[@ftmt9568]

I thought the same thing 🤪

[@MagDag_]

I don't believe, they can match original suspension with the aftermarket. I tried, but it didn't work like the old ones.

[@pennolmintwind5056]

It appears someone put that badge on purposely, in the interior it missing the EV Mode button and the gauge cluster has the analog coolant temp. So it is actually a 460

[@llspragulus]

Yay! Doing all the routine maintenance all at once! All that should have been done throughout the car's life. It boogles my mind how people pay so much, expect to just drive a car, and never maintain it. Those types of people were the lifeblood of my autoshop before I retired. LOL

Beautiful car! The LS 460 is my dream car. Amazing repair and detail work on this car!

I would love to know how much the total cost was to bring this car back to life from start to finish including parts and labor? Take care. 😀👍🏼
